i mean, the ground was laid by the bad poll is is of george w. bush. and that came at the expense of the growing middle class and giving huge tax breaks to the billionaires. >> so to the question i asked you before, is the economy where you thought it would be when we had stimulus plan and in the summer of recovery, and right now where you thought it would be honestly? >> i am not surprised that this is a longer bit of work than many of us would have hoped. it is not where any of us would have hoped that we would want it to be. we need to give credit to the republicans in congress to defeat every jobs bill and slow down the economy and frankly, i'm a little bit surprised at just how successful many republican governors were at cutting the the public sector so that the teacher and the police and firefighter jobs would be a drag on the otherwise consistent private sector growth. >> at the end of the day, things don't get better unless you continue to invest in the workforce and no republican has talked about education and the investment in the future wor
